A compact color laser for a small workgroup that wants Wi-Fi, a color display and two-sided pages. The listing contradicts itself on scanning and gives a placeholder for color.

Overview
A small workgroup corner is where this Lexmark color laser fits, joining a network by Wi-Fi or Ethernet and sharing output with a color touch screen. Full-spectrum security features protect the device and its jobs.
Color output at a steady rate and a touch interface suit a team that shares one printer. The limits are muddled spec entries: a flatbed scanner appears next to a print-only function, and several fields hold placeholders.
Who it's for
Small teams printing color handouts, labels and reports on a network fit the format. Buyers who need scanning, or who want every spec confirmed before ordering, should check with Lexmark first.
Pros and cons
- Same rated speed in color and black
- Wi-Fi, Ethernet and USB
- Automatic two-sided printing
- Interactive touch screen
- Scanner status unclear
- Placeholder entries in the spec table
- Maximum media size field looks wrong
Performance notes
The laser engine sets the page rate, and the rating applies to both color and black pages. Automatic duplex handles the second side inside the machine. The two trays feed the engine, and the maximum capacity figure depends on them.
